The Netherlands was the only country where this approach had been attempted.

The conception was, in essence, a pragmatic and practical one, focusing on the behaviour of teachers and learners in the learning situation. The possibility of establishing andragogy as a separate science was opposed. Andragogy was considered to be a field of research belonging to established sciences such as sociology, psychology, and anthropology.

This view was particularly prominent in France and Great Britain. Andragogy was considered to be an independent scientific discipline with its own scientific structure, specific fields of research, and a system of sub-disciplines.
